Marion, Iowa, is a "vintage uptown" type of community, and a part of the Cedar Rapids
metro area. Our show is regional, one-day, intimate and purposeful, with the mission
to be an event through which you will thrive. (Here, we're obligated to insert that
we're volunteer-driven, admittedly hokey and maybe a more than a little mom-and-pop).
There are no bands, there is no beer...our festival is about the art (we do, however,
cop to felafel).
We're one of the most artist-profitable festivals in he country! The Art Fair
Source Book named the Marion Arts Festival among the Top 25 events in the nation
for 2012 (#17 in fine art; #24 in fine craft).
